Hello!

I've installed a local kde version from svn as a user in its home directory. How can I start this kdm with the xdm init daemon?

I found the file /etc/env.d/45kdepaths-3.5 and saved appropriate changes to /etc/env.d/45kdepaths-4.1.

wouldn't /etc/conf.d/xdm be the best place to make that change?

No, you've got to set some enviornment variables. In /etc/conf.d/xdm you can just set the executable name.
